Me[M21] and my girlfriend[F20] were hanging out in my room and I asked her what she thought when we first met and she mentioned how I wasn’t her type but I seemed nice and such. I tried not to think much of it at the time but she has mentioned it a couple times over the past couple of months and we have been doing those “5 questions for your partner” questions posts on insta and she responded to a question that said “How did you first describe me to your friends” by saying “Literally the most amazing guy I’ve ever met and we talk for hours and hours and he’s pretty cute but not my typical type Heheheheh :)))”.
I know that she means in more of a personality was since the other guys she dated were douches and never treated her right while she says I treat her right. I know that she is attracted to me emotionally and physically and we have never had major issues in our relationships, but this has stuck with me for months. Is this something that I should talk with her about?

She’s 20. How much of a “typical type” could she have. I don’t know why you are letting this get in your head. She’s saying she dated assholes before you and you are a much better guy. That’s a compliment.
Is this a bad thing? If you’re confident that she’s attracted to you, it’s probably good that you’re not like her exes.
